hey
so literally about 30 minutes ago I cut myself with a knife trying to open a bag of chips. The cut I got did bleed and I put cold water on it almost immediately and also let it bleed and stuff,put a bandage over it and went on my way. it isn't a deep wound I kind of just scratched myself with the knife,but it did bleed so. Now I'm scared of tetanus (even though I got a tetanus booster literally 9 days ago) lol... :huh:

I would not worry, you had a booster 9 days ago, even with out the booster I would be pretty confident of not getting it. Tetanus is VERY rare.

You will be fine! :) Tetanus boosters are actually usually good for longer than 10 years even. So especially after just having yours no worries
